2011 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

I HAVE SPENT OVER $2500 IN BRAKES OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS AND THIS TIME WHEN PURCHASING NEW TIRES FOR MY CAR, I WAS TOLD IT NEEDED FRONT AND BACK BRAKES AGAIN!!! I DID NOT PUT THEM ON THE CAR THIS TIME AS MY BUDGET WAS EXCEEDED WITH THE TIRES. NOW, IT NEEDS A CATALYTIC CONVERTER WHICH I WILL NEED IN ORDER TO PASS INSPECTION. I AM READY TO GIVE THIS CAR BACK TO THE DEALER IN WHICH I GOT IT FROM!!!!

VARIABLE VALVE TIMING ACTUATOR WENT OUT AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS WAS RECALLED ON EARLIER MODELS. I'VE SEEN LOTS OF FORUMS WHERE PEOPLE WITH 2010'S AND 2011'S STILL HAVING THIS PROBLEM. WE LEARNED ABOUT THE PROBLEM BY RESEARCHING WHAT THE RATTLING SOUND COULD BE WHEN WE START THE CAR FROM THESE FORUMS. THE OIL LIGHT STARTED COMING ON AND THE CAR WAS LOSING OIL. IT STARTED RATTLING EVEN WHILE DRIVING IT OR IDLING AT A LIGHT. THE AUTO MECHANIC VERIFIED IT AND WE HAD TO PAY $900 TO HAVE IT FIXED. IF THIS PROBLEM WASN'T RESOLVED AS HONDA SAYS IT WAS THEN WE SHOULDN'T BE OUT THE COST TO FIX IT.
